Video recommendation: How To Contact The Voyager 2 Probe ( link ) and Pinging The Voyager 2 Probe ( ▶ this video ) by EEVDiscover
Dave Jones of EEVBlog has a nice series of videos talking to Richard Stephenson, Operations Supervisor at the DSN's Canberra site. How To Contact The Voyager 2 Probe: Part 1: link Part 2: ▶ this video Part 3: link (the playlist is a mess, and videos are unordered) There are also a couple of Behinde the Scenes videos.
Big antennas can pick up really small signals. Deep space network video where they talk about the fact that Voyager I/II is NOT the toughest signal to grab (apparently Mars Exploration Rover is due to small antennas): ▶ this video That being said, I doubt you could pick up WiFi and dig it out of the noise at space distances. However, you probably can relay signal intelligence from a drone or a human who is using a specific modulation known to the satellite.
